There was a large aggregation of living tuna crabs in the deep shade of one of the buildings. I have over exposed that image for your viewing pleasure.

Hundreds on the beach and in the tidepools in this cove. The large Anthopleura sola were disgorging big red piles of crab exoskeleton and the shore crabs were playing tug-o-war with some of the dead ones. The third photo shows the beach tinged red with dead crabs.

Thousands of these crabs all over the beach, some dead, some still moving. Seagulls were eating them.

Squat lobster parts? Lots of these on the beach, some deposited there as Heerman's Gull poop (see secondary photos of freshly observed!). ID as per Jensen, 'Crabs and Shrimps of the Pacific Coast,' p. 182. Four-year-old nephew delighted to be photographing poop. :-)
FYI, thousands of them washed ashore in Southern California last February.

Found washed up on the beach near Asilomar. Many thousands also washed up. Went back the next day for more pictures and they had all been eaten by gulls.
